robertes is correct

To add to what the others have said, I might also suggest compiling Perl fresh from source (using gcc), as Perl takes the environment under which it was compiled as the template for compiling modules¹ - i.e. Perl will expect to be able to use the system's C compiler. If you don't have the ANSI/C product, then this will fail miserably; it is also difficult to make gcc work for compiling modules in some cases.

Of course, this would be unnecessary if HP actually decided to use gcc for the whole of their software archive - currently about 50 per cent is compiled with gcc, and the remainder using their ANSI/C product.

No, Homer, very few cartoons are broadcast live - it's a terrible strain on the animator's wrist
